Spy shots from a souped up Roewe 350. The medium-sized and normally rather boring sedan will get a 1.5 turbo under the bonnet, mated to a six-speed manual. That is very good! Output is 135hp and 200nm. No performance claims yet but this package must be good for some 220km/h.

The base Roewe 350, available only with a 107hp/135nm 1.5. Price starts at 78.800 yuan and ends at 97.800 yuan. The 1.5 turbo so is more than welcome, but!, it is a big disappointment that Roewe didn’t do anything to differ the 1.5 and the 1.5 turbo. Well, they did something inside…

Half red painted T-badge (T-from Turbo)on the gear-knob. Check! That’s it. And solly, just now I was a bit unfair ’bout the exterior. Roewe actually did something at the back:

Look closely at the righ-lower-corner of the 350’s little ass. Yup, that’s the same half red painted T-badge as on the gear-knob. Waddabout a Big Wing, Roewe? Sporty car not looking sporty, tsk tsk.
